Seat Belt Chimes: OFF THANK YOU!!!

pull them out put them in the cup holder like i do. thats something i had to get used to. with my old dodge i just pulled the key out a bit and no chime.

 

Thanks.

 

I'll be damned.

 

My wife has a 08 toyota sienna. I cant stand the belt reminders. Our driveway is a little over a 1000' so every time we stop at the mailbox and then drive up our driveway we hear that damn belt reminder. I have an 07 tacoma and I never heard the belt reminder fo off. I hope it works in her van.

 

This is true, the passenger airbag will NOT work if you disconnect the wire underneath the seat to disable the chime.

 

Do 05 and 06 Tacos have the chime? because the only chime i hear is the annoying door and igintion chime

 

I believe the seat belt chime was new to the '08+ Tacoma's. Previous models used only the warning light, not the combination of both the indicator light and chime.

At least this is what I've read from a few different people.

 

Yeah i have the flashing light (you begin to block it out of your vision after you start the truck. and i also have the Airbag "Off" "Auto" switch

 

Sweet - Although I wear my seat belt 99% of the time, that beeping is annoying the other 1%. Not any more.

 

Just another thanks. Now I can put my cell phone on the passenger seat w/o a constant chime. Thanks again.

 

i took my 09 to the dealer and he unplucked it underneath the driver's seat. the passenger still goes off but mine is more important.

 

First thing I did to my 09. THANKS!!!!!

 

Anyone confirm if this disables the airbags? I don't want that to happen, but I hate the chime also.

 

The method mentioned by the OP in post #1 will not disable the airbags. Hope this helps.

 

Not to rain on your parade buddy, but how are you so sure? What is your source?

 

Your not raining on any parade here.

I checked with a local dealer before hand, and according to the service manager this would not disable the airbags. The airbag indicator light on the dash also clearly states the airbags are 'ON' when an adult is sitting in the passenger seat, whereas the light would not come on with the pressure sensor switch disconnected.

It is fairly common for the dealer to disable the seatbelt chime as described in the original post.

 

To add to the above post, the computer is still aware of unlatched seat belts and will notify you via the seatbelt light. All the seatbelt chime 'off' sequence does is to simply eliminate the seatbelt chime. Nothing more, Nothing less.

 

awesome! imma do that when i get off work.

 

hell yeah just axed the seatbelt chime in my 09 just made my day

 

awesome. program setting.
